Goedhuis, December 2017
Magnificently positioned within the village this is always a generous cuvée. The 2016 has a vibrant freshness, with tones of sweet/tart redcurrants, and a long svelte finish.

Jancis Robinson, November 2017, Score: 16.5+
50% new oak. Barrel sample. Deep cherry red with purple rim. Dark, spicy and toasty fruit. Lots of toasty oak on the palate but a surprisingly fluid tannin texture, not thickened by the oak. Dark and fresh and with the fruit to last while the oak subsides. Very oaky at the moment. Drink 2023-2030 (JH)

Son of the family who used to own the illustrious Domaine de la Pousse d’Or, Nicolas Potel set up his négociant label Maison Roche de Bellene in 2008. A Bourguignon through and through, Nicolas’ unrivalled local network of thoroughly reliable grower-suppliers allows him to source fruit from the most sought-after parcels in the Côte. He also produces a selection of domaine wines (under Domaine de Bellene). The emphasis remains to this day on well-sited venerable vines and viticulture and the Maison Roche de Bellene label is the superlative source of attractive, well-priced Burgundy wines. Nicolas chose the name ‘Bellene' in honour of the ancient Roman name for Beaune.Read less
Region
Vosne Romanée
The vineyards of the modest village of Vosne Romanée are arguably the most sought after in the Côte d'Or. It is host to excellent Village and Premier Cru wines, but it is its most famous Grand Crusthat truly stand out: Romanée-Conti, La Tâche, Richebourg, Grands Echézeaux, Echézeaux, Romanée St. Vivant and La Romanée as well as Cros Parentoux, a Premier Cru vineyard which attracts Grand Cru attention (and prices). Vosne-Romanée can be remarkably robust and powerful, yet be charming and fleshy giving it one of the most diverse styles of the region.
